|  | The Pigman & Me by Jeff Woodman, Paul Zindel
The author of such books as The Pigman , My Darling, My Hamburger , and the Pulitzer Prize-winning play The Effects of Gamma Rays on Man-in-the-Moon Marigolds reflects on his early years. Raised by a chronically depressed single mother, Zindel felt lost in the world until he befriended Frankie, the elderly father of one of his mother's friends. It was this man, the first male role model in Zindel's life, who gave him the advice and support he needed to survive his difficult adolescence. Readers of Zindel's fiction will recognize Frankie as the inspiration for the character known as The Pigman. Illustrated with photographs. AUTHOR: Jeff Woodman, Paul Zindel
